Our brains need to be trained to make us think like we aren’t in business mode but if we spot something or hear something that may help our business to build and succeed, a light bulb should go off. An idea should start building and our creative juices should start flowing. We also need to be shameless self-promoters. If the chance comes up to mention your business, go for it.

For instance checkerboard flooring + polka dot wallpaper = big mistake.

It is a process of writing, locating areas where you can have them published, and then waiting for people to take notice. It then starts all over again.
